XeroGetting Started
When you sign up for pay.com.au, you can connect Xero to speed up the process. Your address, website, industry, and revenue are pulled from Xero so you can review and confirm rather than fill in a form.
Connecting Xero during sign-up is optional. If you prefer, skip it and continue through the standard flow.
How to connect Xero during sign-up
- 1 Enter your ABN and entity type on the first step of sign-up.
- 2 Select Connect Xero when the option appears.
- 3 Review the pre-auth information. This explains what pay.com.au will fetch from Xero, that you can pull bills and invoices into the platform later, and that your information is never shared outside the platform. Select Continue to proceed.
- 4 Log into Xero and select the organisation you want to connect.
- 5 Select Allow Access.
- 6 Review the pre-filled details on the next page. Each field sourced from Xero is labelled From Xero — you can edit any field before continuing. Your ABN and entity type are locked while Xero is connected.
- 7 Confirm your details and continue with the rest of sign-up.
If some fields are empty
pay.com.au pulls what's available in Xero. If a field isn't populated in Xero, it will be blank on the review page — fill it in manually and continue. Nothing is lost.
Your ABN and entity type are locked while Xero is connected
To update these fields, disconnect Xero from Settings > Integrations first. This unlocks them for manual editing.
